Welcome back!
I am sorry for my long disappearance from this story but it will be explained at the end.
I also apologize for any grammar or mistakes as I am uploading this after reading it myself and not sending it to a beta as I wanted to get this to you guys as soon as possible!
"Xenovia, I don't think we should do this. I'm having second thoughts." Irina said to her partner.
They stood in a clearing behind the ORC waiting to duel. On the other side of the clearing stood there opposition.
Naruto, his wife, and Saeko stood together near Rias and her peerage. Irina took noticed of the grin that Saeko was struggling to hide.
"I think we should back out now. That girl is starting to give me the creeps." Irina said never taking her eyes off of Saeko.
"Enough Irina. We can not let them talk about the Church like that. They will regret it." Xenovia replied.
"But is betting on the Holy Swords really a good idea? I don't think the Vatican will be happy with our decision."
Xenovia pulled her sword off her back and started to unwrap it revealing the Holy Sword of Destruction.
"The Vatican left us in charge of retrieving the swords. They told us to use any means necessary and we are free to do as we please to return them. And WHEN we win, we will have territory owned by another faction." Xenovia explained.
On the other side of the field, Rias was having similar thoughts to Irina.
"Naruto, are you sure about this? I mean, they have Holy Swords. How are you going to counter them?" Rias said. Her peerage also worried as Kiba was the first to face off against them.
"Saeko will be fine. To be completely honest, they won't even come close to winning." Naruto replied looking at the scowl Kiba had on his face as he looked at the Holy Swords.
"What about Kiba?" Rias worriedly asked.
Naruto turned to face Rias while Yasaka went to talk to Saeko.
"Kiba will lose his match." Naruto stated bluntly. "Look at him. He is only worried about revenge and doesn't care for his own well being. I know his story and why he hates the swords so much. In his current condition, if giving the choice of destroying only one of the swords and letting one of you die, I wouldn't be surprised if he destroyed the sword." Naruto said to shock of Rias' peerage.
"Kiba would never do that! Prep cares too much about us!" Issei argued.
"Just look at him." Naruto motioned to where Kiba was warming up. "Have you guys seen him this angry? Just the energy he gives off is tainted with negativity."
They all watched as his practice swings were sloppy and misguided. A nasty scowl on his face.
"Can we get this started already?! I'm sick of waiting!" Kiba shouted. Naruto shook his head at the boy's attitude.
He motioned for the two of them to join him in the middle of the clearing.
"Alright. Duel between Kiba and Xenovia… Start!"
(Canon Fight)
"I will say that you put up more of a fight than I believed but you still need improvement… senpai." Xenovia said.
Kiba just got up and walked back angrily where Rias and her peerage stood.
"Excellent swordsmanship Xenovia. Now, are you ready for our deal?" Naruto said as he walked forward. Xenovia nodded.
"Good. Now remember, we will not interfere with your search for the remaining holy swords." Irina and Xenovia nodded at that. "Now our deal is if Saeko wins, we get a holy sword of our choosing. And if you win, you get to keep this territory, Kuoh, that is currently owned by Kyoto. Do you accept?"
Irina looked at Xenovia and saw the look in her eye. She wouldn't back down from this.
"We accept." Irina responded although a bit worried. This was a huge decision to make without the Church's consent.
"Great. Now, if you would." Irina and Xenovia walked up to the middle of the field and Saeko mirrored their move.
"Now, ready…"
"She won't win." Kiba said out loud.
"Why is that?" Rias questioned with curiosity as were the others in her peerage.
"I couldn't beat Xenovia let alone facing two holy swords at once is suicide for a devil." Kiba answered.
"Then why did you do it? I mean, if it's suicide, you would have to be retarded to fight them, right?" Issei voiced his opinion making an unintended jab at Kiba.
Kiba ignored the insult. "She won't last five minutes against them."
"...Begin!"
As soon as Naruto said those words, Xenovia made a dash at Saeko hoping to end this in one blow.
That was proved difficult as Saeko simply sidestepped the strike with ease.
Xenovia stared at her and finally realized the maniacal grin on the purple haired woman's face.
Saeko went for a kick but Xenovia jumped back before it could land.
"She's fast Irina. We have to work together." Irina nodded and pulled out her sword, Excalibur Mimic. It was tied around her arm before it transformed into a Katana.
They were about to charge at Saeko but paused as a seal appeared next to her. Saeko stick her arm in it and the exorcists tensed waiting for her to retrieve her weapon.
They all had a look of confusion when she pulled out a wooden bokken.
Before they could comment, Irina had to backflip away from getting struck by Saeko.
Xenovia charged and sliced at Saeko only for Saeko to bend backwards at the waist showing extreme flexibility.
Xenovia had no time to react to the incoming heel from Saeko to her chin as she backflipped away from Xenovia.
Xenovia went flying to where Irina was and slid across the ground.
"Are you alright?" Irina asked worriedly.
Xenovia stood and spit out some blood.
"I'm fine. I need you to hold her while I strike." Irina nodded at the plan.
Xenovia took full charge at Saeko, swinging her sword at the purple haired woman attempting to cut her down. Saeko avoided the strikes with ease as she danced around the strikes.
She suddenly froze when she felt something wrap around her body. She looked down and saw a whip holding her in place. She looked to where it was being held and saw Irina at the end of it.
She cursed herself as she forget the swords mimicry ability.
She quickly spun out of the whip to try and avoid another slash from Xenovia while dropping her bokken in the process.
Once free, Saeko jumped back to a safe distance only to go wide eyed at the wet feeling she had on her stomach. She looked down and saw her shirt had a horizontal slit in it that was slowly turning red courtesy of Xenovia's last attack.
She looked at the blue haired woman to see her smirk as she smashed her wooden bokken.
"You were lucky I barely grazed you. Had this sword made full contact, you would not be apart of this world anymore." Xenovia smugly said. Irina stood next to her with a kind smile.
"We suggest you give up, Saeko-san." Irina politely suggested. They were shocked at what Saeko did.
She gave them a bloodthirsty grin and her eyes contained a bit of… arousal? They didn't think she was a battle freak.
"You two are a good challenge. I didn't expect you guys to work together as the new generation seem to be stuck up and arrogant about working alone." Saeko said earning nods from Naruto, Yasaka and surprisingly the exorcists themselves.
"We have our pride but know when to put that aside when dealing with a dangerous opponent. We are not morons." Irina told them. Which was true. Most of the younger generation believed they could take the world on without any help.
"I see you guys know the value of teamwork." Saeko said before she gave Naruto a look.
Naruto knew that look all too well. He ran his hand through his crimson locks and sighed.
"Fine. But don't rough them up too much. We don't need another war on our hands." Saeko grinned.
She summoned another seal next to her and reached in. When she pulled out her weapon, they all gaped at the blade.
It was as big as she was and the handle had more than a foot of grip to it. Towards the bottom of the blade was half of a circle cut into the blade. While towards the top had a full circle cut into the blade, large enough to stick someone's head and a bit more through it.
"This blade is very special to me. I received it as a gift from a fellow peerage member of mine. She means the world to me and I will respect her by defeating you with this blade." She pointed it at the exorcists.
"Meet the: Executioner's Blade!"
Saeko took off at a speed thought impossible with how big the sword she was carrying is.
She striked Irina as she barely managed to block Saeko's strike but was still pushed back and forced to jump away.
Xenovia attempted to strike Saeko only for her to dodge and swing her own sword at Xenovia.
She jumped away but managed to see a few of her blue hairs fall as the Executioner's Blade cut her hair.
Irina charged at Saeko and their blades met with a clang. Irina was putting all she had into it and Saeko looked as if she could read a book with how little effort Saeko was using to push back.
Irina jumped away as Xenovia came in from behind Irina. Saeko had no time to avoid so she made an attempt to block.
Xenovia's sword cut through Saeko's as if it was made of butter. Half of the blade was left.
That didn't stop Saeko as she charged at Xenovia and kicked her in the stomach sending her crashing into a tree where see sat conscious but unmoving as blood came out her mouth.
Saeko walked over to her and stood in front of her.
"Do you-" Saeko moved her head as Irina attempted to slice her head off.
Saeko elbowed her in the ribs. She hunched over at the loss of air and Saeko slammed her into the ground and kept a foot planted on her back.
"Almost caught me off guard for a third time. Quite the tricky ones, aren't ya." Saeko then turned back to Xenovia.
"Now, I really believe this went a bit further than a spar should have gone so, do you yield?"
"Y-yes." Xenovia shakily said.
"Good." Saeko took her foot off Irina. She then put her sword under Xenovia's chin.
Xenovia's breath hitched. Was she going to kill her.
"Hey! The fight is over!" Issei yelled concerned about the exorcist. Sure she started all this but that was no reason to kill her.
"Relax. She isn't going to hurt her. I'm quite surprised that you actually care about something besides a woman's assets." Naruto said. Issei glared at him. "Take it easy. Look at the sword."
He and the rest of the occupants looked at the blade Saeko held.
They saw blood falling on it. When there was a good amount, Saeko pulled the blade back.
To everyone's astonishment, the blood was absorbed into the blade. Their jaws dropped as they witnessed where the sword was cut in two started to grow back. After a few seconds, the sword was back to its former size as if it was never damaged.
"Asia-chan, if you would please." Naruto smiled at the blonde girl. She smiled and ran over to the fallen swordsman with Naruto and Yasaka close behind.
As Asia healed them, Naruto spoke.
"That was a remarkable battle. I highly commend you on that. However, a deal is a deal." They gulped. "We will not interfere with your search. But we will be taking a Holy Sword of our choosing... but at a later time. You will need them in your search. Until next time." Naruto said as he walked away.
He went to where Rias and her peerage was.
"As per the deal, no one is to interfere with their search. Am I understood?" Nods all around although some were less willing than others. "Good. Now, if they happen to, I don't know, have trouble while you are taking a casual stroll for no apparent reason and they seem to need assistance, this is still Kyoto's territory along with devils and we are allowed to protect our own land after all." He finished with a smirk.
Lightbulbs went off as they understood what he was saying.
"Understood Naruto." Rias answered with a smirk of her own.
Naruto smiled and stepped back with Saeko and Yasaka next to him. A teleportation seal appeared under them.
"Oh! Before I forget. You are invited to dinner Rias along with your peerage."
"R-really?" Naruto nodded.
"My daughters have been dying to meet their aunt and it would be nice to have dinner with all of my family for once. Oji-san and obaa-san will be there also." Rias thought about it for a second.
"Sure. That would be nice."
"Great! I'll get back to you when we have a set date!" And like that, Naruto was gone.
Rias had a smile on her face.
"Ara buchou~ Is someone having naughty thoughts of their onii-chan~" Akeno said to Rias' embarrassment and Issei's horror.
"I-it's not like that!" Rias shouted and walked to the ORC room.
Naruto's House
As soon as Naruto, Yasaka, and Saeko appeared in their home, Naruto felt someone jump on his back and arms wrap around his neck. He smiled at who it was.
"Daddy!"
"Hello Kunou-chan. How's my little princess doing?"
"I'm doing great! Me and nee-chan learned how use water magic to water Akasha-kaa-chan's garden!" Kunou-said as her tails wagged.
"That's great musume! Where are they now?" He asked.
"Moka-nee is taking a bath with kaa-chan right now! I just finished mine!"
Naruto smiled at her antics. She was so full of energy.
Before anything else could be said, he felt lips press onto his cheek. He turned and saw it was Saeko.
"Thank you for that fight Naruto-sama~ I'll gladly do that again if you need me to… and duel with someone if needed." Saeko said before she walked away. Naruto turned to his wife.
"What did you tell her?" Yasaka just giggled.
"Oh, nothing really." Naruto was about to respond but a voice cut him off
"You leave for a few hours and end up getting another girl to sleep with Naruto."
They turned to see Akasha drying her hair with Moka standing in front of her in the cutest pajamas with bats on them.
"Well, I'm just pushing towards the direction they want." Yasaka said.
They both pressed their foreheads against one another and started arguing… as always.
Naruto sweatdropped.
"So my lovely daughters, do you feel like having a sleepover with your Tou-chan tonight? Your mothers seem a little preoccupied."
Kunou shouted in agreement while Moka nodded although she had a big smile on her face.
He then picked up Moka with Kunou still on his back as he carried them to their room.
Just an average day in the house of Naruto Gremory.
Okay So I'm Back! I am sorry for any errors once again.
I apologize for the long hiatus but I have been working to the bone recently. I have two jobs right now. One is sorta part time as it involves doing site surveys for cable every few days and the other is Hot Mopping if you guys know what that is.
So I am gone all day and when I get home it is already dark.
I put this out here as it has almost been 3 months since the last update for this story.
This chapter was meant to be longer but I wanted to put this out and I also plan on HOPEFULLY adding another chapter to this before this month is over.
And for something important. I have seen where this story will end and that is not to far away. I can say it will be during meeting with the factions. Now don't worry. I plan and having 3-4 more chapters before that and when I do get to the meeting, it will be at least 2 chapters and maybe 3. I am hoping to get around 80k words by the end as with this chapter this story will be at about 40k. I plan on having my last few chapters being 10k words or more so there is that.
Now for what most people are concerned with and that's the harem.
Most people want his whole peerage to be in his harem. Now I have no problem with that but just know that each girl won't get much 'screen time' as the main girls. They will be in the filler chapters and those are not included with the 3-4 chapters I mentioned earlier.
And for Kunou and Moka. I am not against it but I also don't know how everyone will feel about that. They won't be getting any lemons or limes if that's what you want as they are still so young.
But if they end up being added, just remember that we have all watched Highschool DxD and this show is definitely close to off the charts with Furries, lolis, MILFS, and sadists and I know many have seen/read incest anime. And if you watched all of Testament of Sister New Devil then you shouldn't really complain to much as it is incest though they are not related, they are adopted brother/sister.
I will attempt to make a poll on my profile if not, then vote with:
Yes/No peerage
Yes/No Kunou and Moka.
The poll results will be closed as I don't want people to vote for what the majority says. I want everyone's own decision and the poll will stay for a few chapters!
And please to the guests, stop making long reviews with 'PLEASE UPDATE' written hundreds of times. I have a life to live and writing is a lot more time consuming than reading is.
See ya next time!
